Cruise Weight loss suggestions

[Tazrok]

In a few days I'm about to go from a 600mg pw test E only blast to a 150 - 200mg cruise for a minimum of 12 weeks Befor blasting again and I want to cut as much as I can as I'm fat.
My diet is diled in at the mo and my body recomp has gone very well and just wanted some extra help to shed some lb.
For the last 16 weeks on blast I and lost no weight but have dramatic lowered my body fat and increased muscle mass.
I total I have about 50lb to lose and I'm not planning to do that all in 1 cruise.

 

[Tazrok]

So you were 38% and started a blast and lost fat in the process?

What are you here for advice for? Sounds like your doing things right lmao. Like everyone has said, Tirz is a miracle drug. You could drop your calories very low and you won't notice the hunger.

Thank you.
If I drop my calories low I will struggle with protien intake. Currently on 2000 calories and hitting 290g protein and Il be dropping to 200mg a week test E on the cruise and that's the part that's confusing and worrying me as don't want to lose to much of what iv built

You will lose some water and fullness. But muscles will be minimal.

Worry about cutting that fat. Then your future blast will be easier.

Oh, hey, that's easy. Get some insulin syringes and some BA water. Tirzepatide comes in is lyophilized form, that is a freeze dried white powder that needs to be reconstituted. Get some sterile alcohol wipes, wipe the vial tops for the BA water and the tirzepatide, draw up some water, inject into the powder, jostle it around a bit and you have your reconstituted peptide.

If, for example you reconstitute 10mg with 1ml of BA water, then .25ml or 25 units on an insulin syringe will be your 2.5mg dose. Inject subq, typically in the abdomen.

I'm offering a summary to get you started, but you'll want to research the process for yourself.

Sorry if I'm being dumb but the stuff I'm looking to buy is Tirzepatide Mounjaro 20mg vial how much ba water would I need to add and do I inject the water into the vile with the tirz?.
Sorry for sounding dumb mate just finding it a bit hard finind the correct information about how to use and what amounts ect

Not dumb at all. Lets say you want to take 5mg/week. If you put 4ml of BA water unto the vile (yes you inject the BA water into the vile), then 1ml would be 5mg. 20/4=5. So if you use 2ml of BA water, (20/2=10) you would only have to inject .5ml a week to get you 5ml. Hope this helps.

What are you looking to buy? Is it actual Mounjaro? If so, it'll come reconstituted. That said, you can by the lyophilized (freeze dried, powdered form) peptide from vendors on here for a great deal less money.

This is what I was going to buy mate from chilton

So if I add 4ml BA water to 20mg vile then 1ml injection will be a 5mg dosage and if I want to start on a 2.5mg then I take 0.5ml injection

You are correct.

 

[bigforyouben]

A peptide vial only holds 3mL. Trying to inject 4mL into it will have vile results.

How do you prepare 30mg tirzapatide? 1ml of water and 0.5 insulin needle, so is 33.3 then 10mg?

 

[Grey Spartan]

If you use 1ml of "water" then 1ml will be 30mg. So .5ml will be 15mg or every .1ml will be 3mg.

 

[Ghoul]

Might be a silly question but other than suppressing appetite how else dose tirzepatide help?

In addition to what egruberman said, in a calorie deficit, metabolic adaptation causes resting energy expenditure to decrease(the anti-diet reaction), a mechanism to prevent starvation. GLP agonists like Tirz reduce the amount of adaptation, maintaining higher levels of calorie expenditure.

The amount of adaptation varies greatly from person to person, usually increases with age, is more pronounced with females, and some don't seem to have any at all, based on genetics, allowing faster weight loss.

Brilliant thank you for explaining that in a way I'm able to understand.

So, it's 33,3iu in insulin needle am i right?

180cm 250lb and at my last scan 25%, I was 38% Befor my cycle and my weight was 257lb

What sort of "scan?"

You are roughly 5'11", and weighed 257 at 38% body fat, meaning, 257 x .38 = 97.66 pounds of fat.

So you are starting with carrying around roughly 100 pounds of fat on a 5'11" body, meaning about 160 pounds of lean tissue.

Then after your 16 weeks of steroid use, you were 25% at 250 pounds, meaning only 62.5 pounds of fat, so you lost

97-62 = 35 pounds of fat. Not too bad, as that is more than two pounds a week, roughly a kg a week.

BUT

In order to believe that, we need to believe that in that same 16 week period you increased your lean tissue weight up to 187.5

Meaning you increased your lean mass by 27.5 pounds.

I do not find that credible.

This is why I asked about what sort of scan.


Question #2
What are you doing for cardio?

Iv had FIT3D scans.
I know not 100% accurate but that's all I have to go on.
Cardio is 15 minutes on treadmill and 15 minutes on rowing machine 6 days a week mate

The actual percentage of body fat really doesn't matter than much. If you can't see your abs at least a little you are fat.

However, if you want to know for real just google Bod Pod or Dexa Scan near you . You'll find criticisms over both tests online, but they are both fairly accurate. I did both within a week of each other and the results were pretty close to identical.

 

[Spaceman Spiff]

I strongly disagree with this statement

Just what a fatty would say.

j/k lol

Genuinely curious why?

To vaguely see your abs were talking 15-18%. In the real world that is not fat, but it's definitely on the fat side for bodybuilding. The general rule of thumb is to not touch gear until you are close to 12% to help prevent aromatization.

Maybe "see your abs" is a little strong. But if you can't at least roughly see them you are slipping to the 20% range.
